Even I don't feel that Into The Woods was a testament to their 4EVA nature
I didn't buy Xander's "Keep him because you're throwing away a big manly man" speech, and Buffy's subsequent forehead slapping 'wake-up', because Riley had become entirely too needy at that point. If we were seeing the one ep S6 Riley that just made you go "Whoa. Wicked cool.", then maybe. But I saw Riley as the one who deteriorated in that relationship, so the "No, BUFFY is the wrong one here." stand kinda rubbed me wrong.
They didn't choose to exploit it to my satisfaction on the show.
Amen. They had a perfect opportunity during the basketball game to do shirts and skins, but noooooo.
Russell Wong . Oh, my, my, oh, my.
Unless they meant him to be boring and then selfish and petulant -- in which case I think he did a bang up job.
Well, if Marc Blucas can act without being wooden in other parts, I think might be the only conclusion left to draw. If it's not a problem inherent to the actor, about the only thing left to assume is that he was directed in a particular manner.

Mmm. I don't see sufficient data here. Joss may very well look at the episodes and go "Damn, that's not how I meant it." It could be because he couldn't get into that character, or whatever. Or he got better.
We're certainly not down to just the one conclusion. There are a million out there.
I think Blucas has been pretty good in the comedic stuff he's done (Summer Catch, that hilarious turn that was the main redeeming feature of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back...) and wooden in all his more serious work. Why they abandoned his strengths to change his character into Clenchy McLockjaw, I'll never understand.

This is going to bug me for a long time, unless someone is kind enough to remind me what MB did in J&SBSB. I remembers Dawson boy and the "Pie-f*cker", but I can't seem to place Riley in the scant version of the film that still plays in my head.
He was Fred during the Mystery Machine scene
Wolfram, he was Fred in the Scooby Doo scene.
X-posty. Though I white-fonted because everyone was being so vague. Guess I didn't need to.
Thanks guys. There he is. Apparently I have more Marc Blucas in my brain than I was previously aware of.
